This blog is called Dead Theologians because I prefer to read the works of Luther, Calvin, Spurgeon, Edwards, Whitefield and the like rather than 99% of today's wasted ink on paper.
The content on this page is my honest attempt to go over things that pertain to Christianity and its mouthpiece, the church.
I also plan to write about many other topics that relate to my life as a Christian. My goal is to comment throughout the week on one subject while changing subjects every week or so.

Why Do People Reject the Bible?

Be very sure of this – people never reject the Bible because they cannot
understand it. They understand it too well; they understand that it
condemns their own behavior; they understand that it witnesses against
their own sins, and summons them to judgment. They try to believe it is
false and useless, because they don’t like to believe it is true. ~ J.C.

First - Joseph - you're are incorrect. You apparently live in a pretty, little fantasy world where you're always right just because you say you're right. Too bad nobody taught you how to think critically. Second - I reject the Bible because I understand it is a work of fiction. I'm not saying there aren't some very good lessons in there, but there are some horrible, wicked lessons in there too. I reject the Bible because it is all about an imaginary person, filled with a lot of imaginary people and events and has no bearing on an honest, caring, loving, good, worth while life.
